[quote=Anonymous]D3 cannot technically recruit, and by recruit I mean guarentee someone a spot. Yes, they can get a tip or a push, but you HAVE to have the credentials. Also, in D3, you are not officially on the team until you try out, unlike D1. You would be surprised at the number of National merit Scholars and National Honor Society members on these D3 athletic teams. I even know of D1Ivy girls that had 700s on their SATs and great averages with APs and honors. This has been mentioned, but very few elite schools are looking for the nerd. They want people who will be leaders, not necessarily the person with the highest SAT score. Athletics often breed this leaderhip and work ethic. Someone that has a personality, and will do something rather than the brillent follower. [/quote]
